Revelations of fake medical diplomas in the Middle West (TIME, Nov. 5) have reverberated in Connecticut, where Governor Charles A. Templeton called an extraordinary grand jury to look into the status of 200 Connecticut physicians, and in a public address foreshadowed "the greatest scandal in the history of the state." Connecticut is one of the few states (TIME, July 16) which have multiple medical examining boards with power to license practitioners of their respective "pathies." Eclectics, osteopaths, chiropractors, naturopaths, etc., will come under the investigation. The exposures already involve members of the Eclectic State Board...
...school certificates (necessary prelude to medical diplomas and state licenses) at an average price of $10, besides a number of M.D. sheepskins. Sachs alleged that other such rings are operating in Chicago, California, and the East, and that 15,000 persons are practicing medicine in the U. S. with fake diplomas or licenses...
Kelley on a fake kick sent a 40-yard pass that just slipped off Hagenbuckle's fingers. Kelley kicked to Jenkins. Cheek penetrated the Green line for a yard.

His one and only lucrative job evaporated when he discovered that, quite without his knowledge, he was being used by a group of fake-spiritualists to add, by his turbaned presence, proper mystic color to their meetings. Altogether, he saw Amerca as few foreign visitors see it-and in the " Epilogue," where he treats of the differences and likenesses between West and East, he has some very sane and original things...
...same evening, about eight o'clock, the New York American (Hearst) appeared on the streets of Manhattan with a picture labeled a "Telegraphoto." The American's contemporaries, the New York Tri bune and The New York World, discovered that the American's picture was a fake. They printed side by side with the "Telegraphoto" a picture taken at Toledo in 1919 when Dempsey knocked out Willard. The pictures were identical in every attitude except for the "doctoring" of a few details and putting a Gibbons head on Willard. Under the picture the American printed: "Gibbons began...
